Movie Badasses

This list is endless but I recently rewatched Baby Boy since it first came out. I have to say Ving Rhames’ character is one of the toughest characters I’ve seen. He didnt fight anybody but he came off as somebody you wouldnt dare fuck with, EVER!

Singleton’s writing for Ving’s character was great. Some may be put off by the “thugness” of it but it was an overall good movie. Its not a Boyz or Meance rip off either. If you havent seen it check it out.

Definitely. I know a guy who reminds me of that character.

Ving Rhames was pretty badass in Pulp Fiction too.

Except of course when he was getting railed up the ass while the gimp watched.

I have to say though…Clint Eastwood will always be one of my favorite movie badasses.

I thought Denzel Washington in “Man On Fire” played a tough badass. Creasy didn’t flex alot of muscle, but his attitude more than made up for that.

Charles Bronson

One mean mutherplucker.

While he may have been a badass in Pulp its nothing compared to Baby Boy. I was scared to look at him the wrong way during the movie!

He wasn’t that bad in Dawn of The Dead either.

Lee Marvin!? Exactly how old are you!? :smiley:

Danny Trejo in just about anything. Esp desperado.


Bullet tooth tony in snatch. The whole desert eagle 5.0 speech is fairly good too.

Jason Statham, Tony Jaa, Jet Li, in no particular order.

Uh, HEL-LOOO? Brad Pitt? Orlando Bloom? Don’t forget Ben Affleck in Daredevil.

Yeahright. I liked Mickey Rourke in Sin City. Marv was one brutal motherfucker. Don’t forget Arnold, either. I also liked Vin Diesel in Pitch Black. “You’re missin’ the party, come’own!”

How about loading lever action Winchesters with one hand, whilst riding a horse with the reins between your teeth and yelling “fill your hands, you son of a bitch!”

C’mon, I know it’s old school but you’ve gotta love the Duke.

Also the dudes in “Casino” were some of the nastiest bastards on film.

Chopper!

One of the few pre-Arnold buff dudes in H.Wood and authentic badass M.F. (“Hard Times” and “Chato’s Land” are both out on DVD)…


Since were gittin’ old school & all, dont forget the “King of Cool”…“Hell is for Heroes” & “Bullitt” are out on DVD…

OK you all went old school I will as well. Oh and Bronson Great choice.

How about the one man fighting force that was Charlton Heston in “The Omega Man”

Have to also Give a shout out the Deniro in Taxi Driver, Pacino in Scarface etc etc.

Don’t forget Chuck Norris. :stuck_out_tongue:
